Russell Green

CW-495

Russell Green is a medium-depth green with discernible yellow undertones, producing a spring-like, olive-adjacent hue at an LRV of 38.58. The yellow content keeps it from reading too cool, grounding the green in a warm-neutral direction that shifts noticeably under different light temperatures. In north-facing light it appears more muted and sage-like
